Patriot Families,

Patriot Families,

I just want to say thank you for an AMAZING LEAP week! It was great seeing all of our Patriots and you! We are very excited for this upcoming school year! Important information can be found below.

Student Schedules

Student schedules are now posted via the parent portal. Directions on how to access the parent portal can be found here. If you don't have a parent portal account or have forgotten your password, please fill out this f orm and we will be happy to help! Students can also access their classes via Clever, Canvas, and their student portal. CCSD reset all passwords to the username which is the first three letters of their last name, first three letters of their first name, and the last four digits of their student number on August 23rd. Most students changed their passwords on LEAP days. If your student forgot their password, they can reset it by calling 843-849-3400. Please know that schedule changes will be very limited. If there are any scheduling concerns please reach out to Mr. Giles at arthur_giles@charleston.k12.sc.us.

If you are starting temporary remote instruction, please look to the room number to see if you are Virtual A or Virtual B. Virtual A is denoted as VirA and Virtual B is denoted as VirB. This will dictate when you are going to be live with the class. For the first day, the teacher may combine both classes. This will be dictated on their Canvas page. If it is an actual room number, then it is going to be Virtual A.

Back to School Resources

CCSD has compiled a number of resources for families. Those resources can be found h ere. It contains everything from Canvas help to transportation.

Textbook Pickup and Device Pickup

We will run a quick drive through tomorrow for device and textbook pickup tomorrow (Friday 9/4) from 9 AM to 2 PM on the car loop off of Simmons St. We hope to see you there if you could not make it to a LEAP day. We will be hosting another drive through next week on Tuesday or Wednesday for those who can't make it this week.
